The EP is huge statement from a band that now demands your attention and will be one to watch into the future.

Live Review: I Killed the Prom Queen, Saviour, Reflections of Ruin, Aveira Skies
Their set was safe and exactly what you’d expect – but they played to their strengths and left punters chanting for more as they finished.

They finished their set with Jesus Stole My Girlfriend, in what was one of the most intense and enjoyable shows I have ever witnessed.

A Bone To Pick
"We’ve been sort of pretty distant and absent from the scene for quite a while, and we’ve been focusing on getting the new material ready to go and we tend to fuss over the details."

Never Had It In You
"The idea of putting out singles as opposed to an album is we can put out six things every year rather than once a year."
Reviews / Album
Album Review: Norma Jean - Wrongdoers
The title track is a standout along with Sword In Mouth, Fire Eyes, Neck In The Hemp and Funeral Singer. Without a doubt their strongest release in their discography.

They are a classy and talented band that anyone who was at the show will be looking forward to seeing in the not so distant future.
